Despite being absurdly anti-capitalist, this is a very good introduction to the Maafa. It is angry, yet highly accurate historically; while fully understanding the mentality of the slaves and their enslavers.
Written in an overly-emotional style, the book tries too hard to tell its readers what to think and what to feel, when a more sober retelling of events would have had a far more profound emotional and intellectual impact.
What is interesting about this book is what frightens Whites most about their own enslaving past, the belief that telling the truth about what Whites did to Blacks will make Blacks vengeful. Yet Blacks could not be more vengeful than they already are and, in any case, true histories of Black oppression make Blacks - more than anything - distrustful and suspicious of Whites; primarily because Whites are frightened to write (or read) books like this.
